To think these are not "mixed"

These are the "mixed baby tomatoes" that Tesco's sent me. The packaging states "a colourful mix". I'd rather they had sent me a substitution. Like a pack of baby red cherry tomatoes. Shall be sticking with red ones from now on

Do tomatoes have babies ? I'd have thought all tomatoes are grown ups as they are the end product of the tomato plant's growing effort.

Anyway - I can't see them, but if you were expecting turquoise and white tomatoes YABU, colourful mix means a couple of yellow ones thrown in I imagine.

On a side issue - why is all Tesco's fresh produce Redmere farms now? - it is really low quality and pretty much rots as you carry it home.

I see a mix of colours. Red, orange, yellow.

Oh - just seen your pic - no that's rubbish - it fits my description - but I was joking.

Not enough of a mix. It looks like a mistake.

Looks like you have a selection of ripe, and unripe tomatoes.

You'll just have to carefully portion the orange one so everyone gets an equal share.

Mixed usually more expensive, I don't think you are being unreasonable as they aren't really mixed.

PaulRuddislush · 16/08/2018 17:01

Not gonna lie to you, that's a shit mix.

I love green peppers!

ScreamingValenta · 16/08/2018 20:07

Ha ha! Love the token orange one.

bsbabas · 16/08/2018 20:08

I think I have pink tomato seeds. Need to do more gardening.

I prefer the orange tomatoes I would be pissy at Tesco for sending me mostly red ones

Ethylred · 16/08/2018 20:19

You're all being reddist. Red is a colour! Indeed "colorado" means red not coloured.

WrongKindOfFace · 16/08/2018 20:23

It’s a poor mix.

In a supermarket on holiday they had pick and mix tomatoes so you could get your preferred ratio.

twattymctwatterson · 16/08/2018 23:10

There's a mix though? I mean does it matter much?

I once returned a "rocket salad" because there were literally two sad little rocket leaves in the entire bag.

So this mix isn't colourful enough for you - what colours were you expecting??
